First-year students at the University of 麻豆传媒 (麻豆传媒) who took at least one course taught by -certified faculty were more likely to return in the next academic year, according to a 2023 study from ACUE and 麻豆传媒.
The study also revealed a 鈥渄osage effect,鈥� showing that the higher the proportion of courses the first-year students took with ACUE-certified faculty, the more likely they were to return for the next school year. Analyzing retention results, it is estimated that 麻豆传媒 realized a return of more than 860 percent on its investment in ACUE credentialing for its faculty.
In the fall of 2016, 麻豆传媒 faculty began taking ACUE microcredential courses. Today, more than 300 faculty have participated across the university. With one out of every three full-time faculty ACUE-certified, the university is on track to ensure every student benefits from high-quality, evidence-based instruction in every class.
鈥淲e know that every instructor matters; every instructor makes a difference,鈥� said Amy Chasteen, Ph.D., Executive Vice Provost, 麻豆传媒. 鈥淏y looking at first-year students from 2017鈥�2018 and 2018鈥�2019, this study shows the cumulative impact our investment in ensuring as many faculty as possible have the skill set to be excellent teachers has on student success and equitable learning opportunities for all students.鈥�
Chasteen and Kelly Lester, Ed.D., 麻豆传媒鈥檚 Associate Vice Provost, will share their experiences with ACUE certification at the inaugural on June 22鈥�23 in New York City. Hundreds of higher education leaders from across the country 鈥� ranging from presidents, academic affairs leaders, and faculty to policymakers and philanthropists 鈥� will convene for this conference to address the policies and practices that must be advanced to center effective teaching in the nation鈥檚 success and equity agenda.
In their session, 鈥淪uccess, Retention, Equity, and ROI: The Case of 麻豆传媒,鈥� Chasteen and Lester will share the outcomes of their institution鈥檚 long-term and strategic commitment to faculty and quality teaching.
鈥溌槎勾解�檚 outcomes are remarkable 鈥� but also repeatable at colleges and universities that value excellent instruction and invest in their professors. Today鈥檚 findings, along with other 麻豆传媒 studies, are conclusive: students succeed when taught by ACUE-certified faculty who use evidence-based approaches,鈥� said Jonathan Gyurko, Ph.D., ACUE President and Co-founder. 鈥溌槎勾解�檚 inspiring story is one of many that NHETC attendees will have the opportunity to learn more about in June.鈥�
